International Trade
Since the end of World War Ⅱ, international trade has developed dramatically. All countries in the modern world join in worldwide trade, through which various sorts of merchandise and (51) materials are exported in (52) for foreign currency, which means income wealth from (53) and job opportunity at home, and in the meantime, foreign goods are imported to provide consumers with (54) and welcome merchandise. Today, economic interdependence among countries is so (55) that no country can close its doors to the outside world, and the more prosperous the national economy, the more developed the foreign trade. Economic globalization is now a (56) in the world.
But in the past when old and new colonialism ruled the world there was no free and fair trade at all. Powers, (57) the British empire, the United States, Russia, Japan, divided the world into their spheres of influence—their colonies or dependencies, where their businessmen (58) their merchandise at high prices and bought (59) raw materials and labor at low prices. (60) of wealth flowed to these powers which then grew prosperous, (61) the colonies were driven into destitution (贫困). The national economy of colonies was innately defective. Their industries could not survive the overwhelming (62) of imports from the powers. Their monotonous national economy (63) in production of one or two agricultural crops or (64) products or minerals, to be sold in international market, for example, orange and sugarcane in Cuba, banana and coffee in South America, coal in Poland, all (65) to supply-demand relation in world market under control of the powers. Even their customs were governed by officials from the powers, whose exported goods thus could enter the colonies nearly duty-free. It was after the collapse of colonialist system all over the world that free and fair international trade, at least theoretically, could be possible.

Problems in doing international trade
When companies do business overseas, they come in contact with people from different cultures. These individuals often speak a different language and have their own particular custom and manners. These differences can create problems. For example, in France, business meetings begin promptly at the designated time and everyone is expected to be there. Foreign business people who are tardy are often left outside to be kept waiting as a means of letting them know the importance of promptness. Unless one is aware of such expected behaviors he may end up insulting the people with whom he hopes to establish trade relations.
A second traditional problem is that of monetary conversions. For example, if a transaction is conducted with Russia, payment may be made in rubles. Of course, this currency is of little value to the American firm. It is, therefore, necessary to convert the foreign currency to American dollars. How much are these Russian rubles worth in terms of dollars？ This conversion rate is determined by every market, where the currencies of countries are bought and sold. Thus there is an established rate, although it will often fluctuate from day to day. For example, the ruble may be worth 0.75 on Monday and 0.72 on Tuesday because of an announced wheat shortage in Russia. In addition, there is the dilemma associated with converting at 0.72. Some financial institutions may be unwilling to pay this price, feeling that the ruble will sink much lower over the next week. As a result, conversion may finally come at 0.69. These "losses" must be accepted by the company as one of the costs of doing business overseas.
A third unique problem is trade barriers. For one reason or another, all countries impose trade barriers on certain goods crossing their borders. Some trade barriers are directly related to exports. For example, the United States permits strategic military material to be shipped abroad only after government permission has been obtained. Most trade barriers, however, are designed to restrict imports. Two of the most common import barriers are quotas and tariffs.
What is the relationship between culture and international trade？
A．Cultures in different countries may help establishing trade relations.
B．Companies can do business overseas without paying attention to different cultures.
C．Misunderstanding in international trade may result from different cultures.
Rising China
The China boom is by now a well-documented phenomenon. Who hasn't heard of the Middle Kingdom's astounding economic growth (8 percent annually), its mesmerizing(令人目瞪口呆的) (51) market (1.2 billion people), the investment ardor of foreign suitors($ 40 billion in foreign direct investment last year (52) )？ China is an economic juggernaut(主宰). (53) Nicholas Lardy of the Brookings Institution, a Washington D. C.-based think tank, "No country has expanded its foreign trade as fast as China over the last 20 years. Japan doubled its foreign trade over (54) ; (55) foreign trade as quintupled. They're become the preeminent producer of labor-intensive manufacturing goods in the world". But there's been (56) from the dazzling China growth story—namely, the Chinese multinational. No major Chinese companies have (57) established themselves, or their brands, on the global stage. But as Haler shows, that is starting to change. (58) 100 years of poverty and chaos, of being overshadowed by foreign countries and multinationals, Chinese industrial companies are starting to (59) on the world.
A new generation of large and credible firms (60) in China in the electronics, appliance and even high-tech sectors. Some have reached critical mass on the main land and (61) new outlets for their production—through exports and by building Chinese factories abroad, chiefly in Southeast Asia. One example: China's investment in Malaysia soared from $ 8 million in 2000 to $ 766 million in the first half of this year. (62) China's export prowess(杰出的才能 ), it will be years (63) Chinese firms achieve the managerial and operational expertise of Western and Japanese multinationals. For one thing, many of its best companies are still at least partially state-owned. (64) , China has a shortage of managerial talent and little notion of marketing and brand-building. Its companies are also (65) by the country's tong tradition of central planning, inefficient use of capital and antiquated distribution system, which makes building national companies a challenge.
